Lean Back or Dive In: Why TIBER Combines Live and On-Demand

There are really two moods when you sit down in front of a screen.

Sometimes you know exactly what you want: the next episode, a film you've been meaning to watch, the interview everyone is talking about. Other times you just want something good to be on. You don't want to scroll, compare thumbnails or read descriptions. You want to press one button and relax.

Most streaming services are built for the first mood. TIBER is built for both.

Starting with live

When you open TIBER, you'll land straight in an always-on live channel. No grid of tiles to sort through and no decisions to make before anything happens. Something is already playing.

This idea isn't new. It's how television worked for decades, and there's a reason people loved it. Live channels give you a sense of company and momentum. You catch the top of the news, stumble across a show you would never have picked yourself, or settle into a live event as it unfolds.

We wanted to bring that feeling back, without the downsides. On TIBER, live channels are free to watch and easy to flip between, and a simple program guide shows you what's on now and what's coming up next.

A library for when you know what you want

Live is wonderful for leaning back. But when you're ready to dive in, you need depth. That's where TIBER's on-demand library comes in.

From the same app, you'll be able to:

• Catch up on stories you missed when they aired live.
• Binge full seasons, starting at episode one and carrying on as long as you like.
• Pick up where you left off on any device, thanks to continue watching.
• Save titles to your watchlist so they're ready when you are.

The library is designed to grow over time, with movies, series, documentaries and more being added as we go.

Why put them together?

You might ask why we don't simply build two separate products. The answer is that real viewing habits don't split so neatly.

A great evening might start with the news, drift into a live channel, and end with three episodes of a series you discovered along the way.

When live and on-demand live side by side, each makes the other better. A live channel becomes a way to discover things you'll later want to watch in full. The library becomes a place to go deeper on something that caught your eye. Moving between them should feel effortless, and on TIBER it will be a single tap away.

Designing for calm

Behind the scenes, much of our work has been about removing noise. We want TIBER to feel calm: fewer menus, clearer choices and a home screen that respects your time. Whether you're leaning back or diving in, the goal is the same: less searching, more watching.
